Meadowlands Race 9 - Race 9
FEDERER (6) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 7 metres from the winner in fourth over 1609m at Pocono Downs. Steps up a level but he is capable of running another bold race. SOUTHWIND GENDRY (5) ran fifth last start at Pocono Downs over 1609m, beaten 8 metres. Expecting a very good run. KWICK SAND A (7) disappointed last time when eighth over 1609m at Plainridge Park. Can turn things around. WATER SPORTS TEEN (2) is worth some thought despite his last-start seventh over 1609m at Philadelphia on May 17.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing second behind Wager On Me at Philadelphia over 1609m in a NW10000L5 on May 17 at $5.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing third behind Captain Crusader at Philadelphia over 1609m in a NW15000L5 on May 24 at $2.20. Capable of testing this line-up.
